For example, if the latest version of the Microsoft Windows XP operating system is installed, the computer may be using the Windows XP Firewall. The HP MediaSmart Server comes with software applications that must communicate over the network. Sometimes these programs are blocked by a firewall. When this happens, security alerts pop up on the computer screen. Security alerts usually have a list of possible options. The particular messages or alerts displayed depend on the vender.
